How to totally mute the phone?

Hi guys, last time on my note 4, I could expend the sound volume and mute not only the incoming alerts, but sounds from games and videos.

Is there a way to do it on the iphone? I already set it to "do not disturb", pushed down that toggle button by the side to silent, but when I watch a video the sound still plays and I have to scamble with the volume buttons to turn down the sound while the video is playing

I'm on 7 and I'm not too happy about battery life either. Something just doesn't seem right in my 7. Think I'll wait until a software update. If no improvement, time to welcome back my SE.

Eh I don't think they'll do repair of such things on the spot.. their response is always that they need to send it back to Apple for repair if it's repairable. If not repairable, they'll do 1-1.

I guess in the mean time, you can use the assistive touch to control vol etc.. kinda weird for your phone to keep having problem though.. some more the "scraped" is just above your vol up button, maybe it was dropped or damaged by someone else?
I'm very anal when it comes to taking care of my phone so it has not dropped before. Just went to a lab (ccp). The consultant after inspecting the stuck button, told me that the phone cannot be repaired and will be 1-1 replaced but need 3 working days.

Song dah. resolved my volume button and paint peel issue together lol.now I'm hoping not to receive a set with the hissing issue as mine doesn't have such issue.

you can change the volume from control center. swipe up from bottom, go to music page. control with the volume slider there.

replacement phone can never be a new one? definitely refurbished?

anyway i googled about refurbished sets, seems like majority claimed that refurbished sets are as good as new ones, if not better, due to the additional quality control testings done for such sets.
